Hi

first time iv posted on here so i hope it works
Just wondering what colour you think i should do my interior vents, centre console etc at the mo they are sprayed silver which matched in with the stereo but gettin a new kenwood flip stereo (black) at the weekend. iv got a saxo eastcoast (still completely standard apart from little spoiler w/brake light) in red so i might go red inside but the stupid dials are blue so will they still go?
Have got v. limited cash to spend (really shud get a job!)
also how easy is it to re trim doorcards?

Go for white. that looks really smart.

Retrims on dooracrds are not a hard job really.
